gluten-free is easy to find. gluten-free and vegan and made without any of the nine major allergens in the recipe is not. that is the (GF) cloud nine roll: soft, pull-apart, no gluten, dairy, egg, soy or nuts anywhere in it. this page is also the honest map of every gluten-free and vegan bakery option in the twin cities, including the ones that beat us.
"gluten-free" and "vegan" are two lines on a label. this is nine.
those nine are the major food allergens under us law. they account for the overwhelming majority of serious allergic reactions, which is why every packaged food in the country has to declare them.
the (GF) cloud nine roll contains none of them in its recipe. no gluten, no dairy, no egg, no soy, no nuts, anywhere in the ingredient list. it is also fully plant-based, so it is vegan by construction rather than by substitution.
that combination is the point. a gluten-free bakery solves one problem. a vegan bakery solves a different one. a household with a kid who cannot have dairy, a partner who is celiac, and a nut allergy in the mix is trying to solve three at once, and almost nothing on a bakery shelf clears all three.
no wheat, barley, rye or malt anywhere in the ingredient list. see the cross-contact note below, which matters if you are celiac.
no dairy, no egg, no honey, no gelatin. plant-based from the start rather than a dairy recipe with a substitution bolted on.
most gluten-free baking leans on almond flour. that closes the door on tree nuts. this one does not use it.
soy lecithin hides in nearly every chocolate chip and a lot of vegan butter. staying soy-free means checking every line, not just the obvious ones.
if you are celiac, read this before you order. we would rather lose the sale than have you find out later.
no gluten, dairy, egg, soy or nuts in the (GF) cloud nine roll's ingredient list. that part is unambiguous and it is what "made without" refers to.
we mill wheat flour in the same kitchen, most days. flour is airborne. that is a real cross-contact risk and we are not going to pretend it away.
tell us the allergy and we will tell you honestly what we do and do not control that week. sometimes the honest answer is no.
for diagnosed celiac disease, a dedicated gluten-free facility is the safer choice, and there is a good one in this city. see below.
we say this on every gluten-free item we sell. a bakery that is vague about its building is a bakery that has decided your reaction is your problem.
including the ones that beat us. if you searched this you deserve the real landscape, not a sales page wearing one.
the honest summary: if you are celiac, start with a dedicated facility. if you want the widest vegan dessert case, that is not us either. if you need one thing a whole household with several restrictions can eat, that is what we built. more on the roll itself in gluten-free and vegan cinnamon rolls in minneapolis.
most schools, daycares and camps ban nuts outright, and many ban dairy and eggs too. that rules out nearly everything on a bakery shelf.
soft, pull-apart, warm spice, cream-cheese-style frosting made without dairy. the item that clears a classroom list. confirm your school's policy first, because we bake in a shared kitchen.
read the full specone kid with a nut allergy usually means the whole room eats something worse. a tray everyone can eat solves it in one order rather than making one child the exception.
request a quoteprotein, fiber, gluten-free and sugar-free. every bake does one of those jobs, and each item carries its own claim. check the item, not the lane.
